I've been trying to add a simple fetch quest to Sakharov. I tried doing it on my own, then tried following information I could find and so on.
Now it seems I've basically been doing it right all along but have a problem. I want the quest item to be vodka (preferably many bottles, but even one would do) and it seems that using the Vodka item as the target in a find_item quest doesn't work, the mission is never offered.
I eventually got frustrated as to why I couldn't get it working and replaced the target from "vodka" to "wpn_val" and suddenly Sakharov started offering the quest.
So I'm hoping someone might know why, or how I could get the find_item quest to work with Vodka, hoping maybe changing some of the [vodka] properties or something.
To make it even stranger I was able to make a monster_part quest where the target was Vodka, unfortunately it still comes up as a "Monster Part" quest.

---QUOTATION--- Vodka as find_item quest target?

Priboi Story has a starting quest from the Garrison commander that involves getting vodka bottles for him, I haven't the files at hand since I am at work. But you should be able to find the task, and re-use it.
Thanks for the suggestion. I figured I'd might end up having to make an actual quest rather than just being able to use the repeating find_item quest, which would have been ideal as I would like it to repeat.
Unfortunately the only information or tutorial I could find on that wasn't very well done and not sure I want to sink any more time into something I might not get working so it's in limbo for now.
